Emigrant remains at 4 percent full at the end of irrigation season. The boat ramps are not usable, so there is no access currently for trailered boats. As water temperatures cool, bank anglers may want to give Emigrant a try for rainbow trout or bass. 

There is a longstanding health advisory for consumption of resident warmwater species in Emigrant for high levels of mercury. Consult the sportfishing regulations or the Oregon Health Authority for more information on consumption guidelines. Algae blooms have been observed in Emigrant Reservoir. Learn how to recognize algae blooms and get tips for fishing safely.

The most current elevations for Emigrant Reservoir and other Rogue Basin reservoirs can be found on the Bureau of Reclamation’s website, here.
